“Queens Count Jail also was found to be wel kept and the sanitary condition good.

"The budding is well kept. nest and tidy, but the ‘building is not in quite as good repair as might be, particuiarly the windows need to be repaired as they are very drafty and this should have at- tention

“Food is good and well prepared. The caretaker, Mr. Dwyer is doing

‘a good 10b. We found 25 inmates

and we attach a report on the prisoners from June 15th to Jan. lst.

Falconwood Hospital

"Falconwood Hospital has 123 females and 129 males housed in separate buildings.

“Fire protection is good so far as fire fighting equipment is con- cerned. The men's building has ex- cellent fire escapes practicafiy completed and the women's buil- ding needs some of the same with balconies protected with wire netting.

“The staff consisting of Dr. Murchfison and Dr. McLaughlan and Miss Rainer are to be com- mended for their excellent care of patients and the clean, bright, and who'escme appearance of the in- stitution.

“Food of excellent quality is provided and the service is a mat- ter‘ of pride. Adequate storage fa- cilities enable them to keep plenti- ful supplies on hand.

“The material comforts of the inmates are well looked after.

"Bot-h men's and women's build- ings are overcrowded to a marked degree especially as t0 sleeping ac- commodation and the recreation rooms. A new building to provide

for nurses and attendants is re- quire-d to partly relieve the over- crowded condition. and separate rooms for the less seriously af- fectcd cases would go far toward the best results in treatment and the removal of nurses and at- tqndants from the main building would greatiy help in adequate rest so desirable in their work.

Need Paved Road

"A paved road connecting with St. Pctcrs Road is an absolute ne- cessity to take care of increasing traffic and in the event of fire to enable City fire apparatus to reach the institution at certain seasons should the necessity arise when this road is practically im- passable.

"The laundry building and equip- ment should be modernized.

"The farm buildings were duly inspected and found to be well kept so far as possible, conditions being good so far as accommoda- iicn is coiroemcd. Roofs should be

the subject of attention as one shingled roof 1n particuar shows slgtr of decay and moss These

wooden structure's are not in keep- ing with modern conditions.

"The interior of farm buildings was found to be well kept and all that cou'd be expected of buildings of their type and age.

"The livestock was found to be in cxcellcnt condition. The number of hogs is small for an institution of this size and kind and we would recommend a larger number as it is considered that the facilities for housing and feedine are adequate for a much larger number.

Law Courts Building

“The Law Courts building is in fine condition and a credit to the Province. We would however, re- commend attention to a ladder and support in clock tower. a small matter but worth immediate attention in the way of repairs as a safeguard against possible ac- ciricnt.

“In view of the general incon- vcnlcnce of the mail couriers and medical doctors in particular tlrrotvzhotrt the country we would s‘r.'""rgiy recommend some better system of winter road breakirv: We would also recommend that some public encouragfment should bc given to medical doctors to lo- cate in many isolated communities which are extreme distances from s nhyswzian.
